People
People are at the core of IEMM’s innovative and inclusive approach to providing science in service of ecological policy and management.
IEMM provides training opportunities and hands-on research experience for the next generation of scientists. We actively address critical issues relevant to resource management and monitoring and ecosystem health.
IEMM projects are multidisciplinary and collaborative, providing a unique depth and breadth of real-world experiences for our team members.
We look forward to establishing more project collaborations and partnerships and to developing new opportunities for practitioners and early career scientists, so please contact us if you or your organization is interested in learning more.
